The name of this superfamily has been modified since the most recent official CATH+ release (v4_4_0). At the point of the last release, this superfamily was named:

"
Kinesin motor domain

FunFam 39: Kinesin-like protein

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

There are 3 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Motor activity GO:0003774
Catalysis of the generation of force resulting either in movement along a microfilament or microtubule, or in torque resulting in membrane scission, coupled to the hydrolysis of a nucleoside triphosphate.
2 Q57XU6 (/ISM) Q57XU6 (/ISM)
ATP binding GO:0005524
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
2 Q57XU6 (/ISM) Q57XU6 (/ISM)
Protein binding GO:0005515
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules).
1 Q6ZMV9 (/IPI)

There are 3 GO terms relating to "biological process"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Spinal cord development GO:0021510
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the spinal cord over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The spinal cord primarily conducts sensory and motor nerve impulses between the brain and the peripheral nervous tissues.
2 E7FFQ3 (/IMP) Q05AP4 (/IMP)
Cell motility GO:0048870
Any process involved in the controlled self-propelled movement of a cell that results in translocation of the cell from one place to another.
2 Q57XU6 (/IMP) Q57XU6 (/IMP)
Spermatid development GO:0007286
The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a spermatid over time, from its formation to the mature structure.
1 E9PSL8 (/TAS)

There are 9 GO terms relating to "cellular component"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Male germ cell nucleus GO:0001673
The nucleus of a male germ cell, a reproductive cell in males.
3 E9PX57 (/ISO) Q8BNG3 (/ISO) Q8C901 (/ISO)
Microtubule associated complex GO:0005875
Any multimeric complex connected to a microtubule.
2 Q57XU6 (/ISM) Q57XU6 (/ISM)
Axoneme GO:0005930
The bundle of microtubules and associated proteins that forms the core of cilia (also called flagella) in eukaryotic cells and is responsible for their movements.
2 Q57XU6 (/IDA) Q57XU6 (/IDA)
Ciliary basal body GO:0036064
A membrane-tethered, short cylindrical array of microtubules and associated proteins found at the base of a eukaryotic cilium (also called flagellum) that is similar in structure to a centriole and derives from it. The cilium basal body is the site of assembly and remodelling of the cilium and serves as a nucleation site for axoneme growth. As well as anchoring the cilium, it is thought to provide a selective gateway regulating the entry of ciliary proteins and vesicles by intraflagellar transport.
2 Q57XU6 (/IDA) Q57XU6 (/IDA)
Ciliary tip GO:0097542
Part of the cilium where the axoneme ends. The ciliary tip has been implicated in ciliary assembly and disassembly, as well as signal transduction.
2 Q57XU6 (/IDA) Q57XU6 (/IDA)
Ciliary base GO:0097546
Area of the cilium (also called flagellum) where the basal body and the axoneme are anchored to the plasma membrane. The ciliary base encompasses the distal part of the basal body, transition fibers and transition zone and is structurally and functionally very distinct from the rest of the cilium. In this area proteins are sorted and filtered before entering the cilium, and many ciliary proteins localize specifically to this area.
2 E7FFQ3 (/IDA) Q05AP4 (/IDA)
Male germ cell nucleus GO:0001673
The nucleus of a male germ cell, a reproductive cell in males.
1 E9PSL8 (/IDA)
Ciliary basal body GO:0036064
A membrane-tethered, short cylindrical array of microtubules and associated proteins found at the base of a eukaryotic cilium (also called flagellum) that is similar in structure to a centriole and derives from it. The cilium basal body is the site of assembly and remodelling of the cilium and serves as a nucleation site for axoneme growth. As well as anchoring the cilium, it is thought to provide a selective gateway regulating the entry of ciliary proteins and vesicles by intraflagellar transport.

Ciliary tip GO:0097542
Part of the cilium where the axoneme ends. The ciliary tip has been implicated in ciliary assembly and disassembly, as well as signal transduction.
